NOW I WANNA KNOW WHY IT DOESN’T WORK ANYMORE …
OK I AM SUPER TIRED AND COMPLETELY LOSING IT BUT I KEPT READING THAT WHEN PPL TRIED TO COPY-PASTE THE FIRST BIT OF JAVASCRIPT INTO THEIR CODE TUMBLR WOULDNT LET THEM AND I WANTED TO KNOW WHY AND IF IT’S WHAT I THINK IT IS IT’S INCREDIBLY FUNNY
when i tested it out, it refused to save by giving me a pop-up window that just said ‘woops :(’ (real helpful error message btw) so i started messin around. here’s the original snippet replicated from the post, bolded the important part
<meta name="if:Enable Know Anon" content="0" /><script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="http://media.pixellab.co/ka/script.js?user_id=1383302445&type=71214331{block:IfEnableKnowAnon}&enabled=true{/block:IfEnableKnowAnon}"></script>if you change that bolded block name to any other name, tumblr will let you save the code, no error messages whatsoever
on the other hand the names “IfEnableKnowAnons” and “IfTenableKnowAnon“ and evne "IfTenableKnowAnons” (all of which have the string ‘enableknowanons’ still intact, as bolded) both trigger the ‘woops’ error msg
so … i think …….. i suspect ………. that at least one of the things tumblr did to prevent people from using this code was just to blacklist the string ‘enableknowanon’ and this fucking CRACKS ME THE HELL UP
disclaimer: coudl be wrong, only deduced from fifteen minutes of trial-and-error in the customize form, not the most rigorous method of ascertaining anything would not recommend
last note: also think they blacklisted the string “media.pixellab.co/ka/script.js” GOD
Ahahah, tumblr that is the laziest thing ever.
I predict the next stop would be to do this check server side.
Where it will take an entire five seconds to go around.
